Hey up moonbeams no news yet, which makes me very unhopeful. And thank you that's really kind.

Hey ho.

Scored two hours in the sunshine weeding today.
Walked 4.5 miles before 12.30 (then my phone died)
Scored a free pallet at work
And two bits of toast.

All good.

Pondering between going to collect more wood and staying home in the garden as its not raining.

Must empty car full of abandoned wood.

Also must work out hours required to sort pension/holiday pay/etc

Morning starshines. Still no news which I'm taking as it aint yours.

Downloaded some great free s/e income accounts which are much easier than my system and have a handy annual total sheet. Feeling quite zen at the moment about stuff.

Famous last words.

Must make lunch and get dressed.

Done 1/2 hour wombles.
6 hours garden to do today.

Total working for the week

7+30 = 37

Lots of reduced bargains at Coup last night 12p stuff (salads) which were going 'off' fridge now full of yummy ice-bergs (lettuces not titanic inducing chaos) for the hens.

Got some fruit (peaches/nectaries) and some bread too.

Timing seems to be everything in that place but I guess the weather hasn't been very bbq inspiring.

most areas have had 200% more rain than normal.

Not really much fun.

Have a good un.

Got a pile of free wood to pick up this weekend, must do that.

Scored 4 free heading to the bin plants at work. Nae clue but they'll fill a gap.

Sunshiney here - hope it's heading your way soon :j Mind you, we're heading for Wales - no idea whether it'll follow us there :rotfl:

Surfacing to wave hello!


Happy to 'see' you have surfaced too!:kisses3:


Bargainous bargains are causing envy!


I'm on a mission to shop from the stores as much as possible! So far have used up the dreg ends of 3 tubes of body cream & emptied 1/2 drawer in the freezer into our bellies!

Sorry you still haven't heard from job. It's so naughty when they don't contact you. Even if you don't get the job, a polite "i'm sorry" email/letter doesn't hurt :mad:

That spreadsheet sounds good. I've been using a homemade system for years now and it's so annoying when it won't copy and paste over into a new spreadsheet every new tax year. What are you using Pippi?

Starnac the software I downloaded is free and looks good and is here

RT good luck with that home-store-bargains Nice to see you surfaced too. Sometimes I feel like surfacing is too tricky but lifes good right now if only I'd let it just 'happen'.

Hope the new house is awesome.

Cheery enjoy wales. have fun.

Yesterday kinda disappeared we went out for tea to celebrate the drivers new licence and his departure over the weekend.

Extracted some lamb shanks from the freezer for dinner and some undrunk wine from the cupboard.

FB'd DD for a while, free chat. Did a bit of washing all air dried.

DS and I shredded the last of the shrub we took out to start the wood stores. Thats now put all over the woodchip path.

I'm hoping that this keeps the paths just splendid and for free.

Off to sort banks/think of doing an 'end of month' blog.

DH is off to India in a while for work and there's a chance if I can afford a flight I can hide in his suitcase. Its hear the foothills of some big mountains, so I'm going to do some sums and see if I can stretch to it.

Will only be about a week, but it sounds lovely.

ETA write invoice for wombles.
